Flood events in 2020 were record-breaking in terms of magnitude and cost in the US, devastating many communities and leading to significant damages. As the 2021 hurricane season draws closer, flood preparedness and coastal management are increasingly at front of mind for industry professionals and city decision makers in waterfront and inland communities. Policymakers, developers, and designers are increasingly looking for new strategies to enhance preparedness, from investment in infrastructure to building design to floodplain buyouts. Join this webinar to explore strategies at multiple scales to mitigate community risk from flooding and storm events.

This webinar will introduce key insights from a ULI Urban Resilience program publication on climate resilient development and U.S. policy approaches to enhance community resilience, including floodplain buyouts.
